I especially admire their determination during our struggle to come to America.Our native country was Vietnam, but forced to escape from the danger there, we had to leave our home and all our belongings and go on a long boat journey to America. I was two years old and the youngest of seven children. I thought of how I might have been a burden to my parents but they have assured me that I was wanted.This journey was not easy for my parents, but throughout they thought of their children first. I was even told that they once ate only apple peers(果皮), leaving the fruit part for the rest of us. My parents' many sacrifices are admirable.Our journey to America was not the last of our struggles. We were also faced with starting a new life in America with nothing. Our first years were hard. I will always remember how my dad used to drop me off at kindergarten and walk on, often in the snow, to English language school while my mom went to work. After a few years my dad got a degree in business and a better job, and slowly our living level began to rise.Today we own three cars and two houses, and we live very comfortably. But my parents' greatest achievement is that they have proven that nothing is impossible. To this day they are looked up to by people they have inspired. I greatly admire my parents and therefore I would like to give them a heartfelt thank you and express my deep love to them.24. What is the author's purpose in writing the passage?_________.A.

Others go to school to learn a skill so that they can make a living. School education is very important and useful. Yet, no one can learn everything from school. A teacher, no matter how much he knows, can not teach his students everything they want to know. The teacher’s job is to show his students how to learn. He teaches them how to read and how to think. So, much more is to be learned outside school by the students themselves.It is always more important to know how to study by oneself than to memorize some facts or a formula(公式). It is actually quite easy to learn a certain fact in history or a formula in mathematics. But it is very difficult to use a formula in working out a math problem.Great scientists before us didn’t get everything from school .Their teachers only showed them the way. Edison did not even finish primary school. But they were all so successful. They invented so many things for mankind. The reason for their success is that they knew how to study. They read books that were not taught at school . They would ask many questions as they read. They did thousands of experiments. They worked hard all their lives, not wasting a single moment. Above all , they knew how to use their brain.28.People go to school to ___________.A.make a livingB. learn a skillB.C. get an education D. learn several subjects29.According to the passage, the most important thing a teacher should do is __________.A.To teach his students everything he knows.B.To teach the students how to study by themselves.C.To teach the students how to make a living.D.To know everything.30.To work out a math problem, you need to know __________.A.how to memorize some facts.B.how to ask for help.C.only a certain formula.D.the method to work it out.31.Why were many scientists successful?A.Because they knew how to learn.B.Because they received good education.C.Because they were very clever.D.Because they learned lots of facts and formula.DOne night in December, a bear came into the city of Vancouver in Canada. It walked through the streets past houses, shops and offices until it found some food in bins outside a restaurant and started eating. In the morning, someone saw the bear and called the police. They came with a vet(兽医) from the city zoo, put the bear in a lorry and took it back to the mountains. Luckily, the bear was safe, but what happens in other countries when big animals come into cities?In Cape Town, South Africa, baboons (狒狒) enter the city when they are hungry. They go into gardens and eat fruit from trees, or into houses and take food from cupboards and fridges. Baboons are strong animals and they can scare people. But the city can be dangerous for baboons too. Sometimes, they are killed in traffic accidents. Human food is very bad for their teeth because it has a lot of sugar. Now, there are baboon monitors(监督员) working in Cape Town to return the animals to the countryside.In Berlin, pigs sometimes come into the city to look for food. They eat flowers and plants from parks and gardens, and cause accidents in the streets. Those who like the pigs give them food and water to drink. Other people do not and want the government and police to stop them.In Moscow there are 35,000 wild dogs. They live in parks, old houses, markets and train stations. Many people give them food and water. Some make small houses for the dogs in their gardens. This helps them in winter, when the temperature is -10℃and there is a lot of snow and ice.In some cities, you can see birds, insects, mice and squirrels every day. But sometimes, it is dangerous when big animals come from the countryside to find food. We need some good ideas to stop animals coming into the city without hurting them.32.Why should we stop animals from entering cities?A.They often kill people in the streets.B. They eat too much food in people's gardensC. They may harm other animals in the city.D. They may cause trouble and endanger people's lives.33.

What can we learn from Paragraphs 4 and 5?A. Pigs are always well treated in Berlin.B. Wild dogs cause many problems in Moscow.C. People are friendlier to dogs than they are to pigs.D. Many people take care of wild animals in cities35. What's the article mainly about?A. Problems caused by big animals in cities.B. How to deal with wild animals in cities.C.
